'Can I read files from the disk by using Webassembly? (re-evaluated)

what's currently possible in webassembly running in the browser regarding accessing the local file system? There's an older question that says it's not possible due to security restrictions. But some places (e.g. https://fjolt.com/article/javascript-new-file-system-api) say that there's a new file system API available in some browsers that would allow that.

a) what needs to be done to be able to use that api? b) can I use it from rust with webassembly - and how?

Thank you for any useful pointer. Tobias
